From his lookout the faithful old captain
of wonder merchantmen casts an uneasy
glance at the distant horizon. See! yonder
a small speck of cloud mo larger than a
mans hand" He watches it with his
piercing eye for few moments, then
reaches for his long cye-glass. 10 his ex-

betokens danger.

respectable families without children

disreputabe business-will never take
kindly to this hobby.
